It's not just a question of typing speeds. It's the flexibility of the touch
screen that does it for me. No more having to remember those wretched
keystrokes.

I have very fast speed on the Nokia Talks Phones. Now I know we will not wish
to get in to a discussion on the Nokia Talks phones as they are in decline so I
am happy to leave the thread at this.

I would never go back to a keypad phone. The touch screen is just so much
more versatile.

I did not use a phone with speech until 1997 and then I only had the Nokia
3212 with no speech. My first Talks phone was from Vodafone in the UK where
they put on Talks free of charge. Now of course Talks has come to the end of
its development and Nokia phones not far behind. This is very disappointing.
I felt I had to force myself to the iPhone and there is no doubt that it is
like carrying a hand-held computer around with me but good that I am with
gestures and residual vision, I miss the Talks Nokia phone every day. still
have a few Talks phones, Nokias with qwerty but now even web browsing is
getting so slow on these and I cannot access my e-mails any more on them.
Can only use now for phone calls and texting but I think it will be with me
forever!!!

I think there will always be a need for specialist companies. Catering to

don't feel comfortable using these new fangled touch screens. I am one
such. I still use a phone with the talks screen reader on it.
